  • a filmmaker, social critic, and founder and longtime member the Situationist

debord rocks out!

I recently came across Debord's "Situationisten" tracks over at UBUWEB and downloaded them without any clear expectation of what I was about to hear. The results are really surprising with each individual track possessing its own distinct qualities. The whole ranges from Artaudesque howling and voice work, through circus barking and on to the sonorous tones of Debord that will be familiar to those who have enjoyed his film narration. Just for good measure the listeners are treated to some percussive musique concrete and a pretty straight rock track! As far as I remember this project isn't mentioned in the Debord biogs so it would be good to track down more information.

I know that Debord wrote and possibly recorded some rabble-rousing 'revolutionary' songs in the sixties. On the debordiana site they used to have the songs and the lyrics (alongside ones by Jacques Le Glou and Alice Becker-Ho) but when I just visited it, I couldn't get to the relevant section. I think I have offline copies of these if anyone is interested! Again, if anyone knows more, I'd be glad to hear in this, the tenth year anniversary of Guy's demise!
